The CEO Says Hello
In today's world, the requirements for education and training
are growing enormously. From childhood through retirement
lifelong learning is increasing in importance across all
vocations and all cultures. Our world is changing so rapidly
that education and training has to be very efficient and
cost effective, often times utilizing the newest technology
so it can be delivered almost anywhere at anytime. High
requirements - increasing demand.
I see these changes at a professional level and at a personal
level. At the beginning of September, school in Switzerland
had already been underway for several weeks. Because my
wife was a bit under the weather, this year I was the parent
that attended the parents meeting with the teacher of our
eldest daughter. I was sitting as one of a few men attending
(parents meetings in Switzerland are still attended primarily
by women) on the little kids chair in the main classroom
of my daughter and I was listening to the presentation of
the teacher. She was telling us how she was structuring
the education targets in 2nd grade. I was deeply impressed
with the methods she was using and the way technology was
being integrated into the classroom. It was so much better
compared to my experience 30 years ago when the extent of
technology integration was a typewriter and calculator.
I was truly amazed seeing what my 2nd grade child was exposed
to and came to appreciate how challenging the curriculum
was and how well the school prepared the kids to use technology.
I just can’t imagine how a teacher must be able to prepare
for such kids. And so, even at this early stage in a child’s
life there is pressure to use technology in the right way
in school.
Impressions from the discussions with you our customers
shows us that basic operational functions in software tools
are often more important than the sophisticated features.
Keeping it simple and getting back to basics is critical
to the successful implementation of technology in the classroom.
It's not about the technology in your classroom - it's all
about what the technology can do for you and your students.
The potential for the use of technology in education is
still enormous. From the home of the teacher to the classroom
and the teaching itself there continue to be huge gaps to
fill. At MasterSolution we believe that together with our
customers we must continue to strive for better, simpler
and more efficient solutions to support the use of technology
at every level in the education process. As technology evolves
the goal for us remains the same, to provide an innovative
and suitable platform for the teacher upon which technology
can be used and managed in a very simple and useful way.
In everything we do, we look to support the education cycle:
Create – Manage – Teach – Assess.
MasterSolution appreciates the support of a large customer
base worldwide. That support helps us and challenges us
every day to improve our existing products and services,
and compels us to develop new “e-Learning” solutions. Our
employees are passionate about their role in improving the
education experience and bring an incredible wealth of experience
and knowledge to the area of "Learning" and "Technology".
Therefore the greatest strength of MasterSolution lies not
in our products or services, but rather in our employees
and our customers. It is our sincerest desire to support
lifelong learning now and in the future . We look forward
to this future and we want to improve it together with you
- our customers.
What is more important than the best education?
Sincerely,
Peter Schuepbach
CEO
